“We Con the World,” a parody video supporting the Israeli commandos involved in the flotilla incident, has collected several million views on YouTube and other video hosting sites. Caroline Glick — deputy managing editor of the Jerusalem Post — produced the video for the website Latma, intended for the Israeli domestic audience. But as Glick explains to PJM:

My team and I were very angry for the way Israel was being demonized, and for the way our soldiers were being demonized by the international media, by the UN, and by the Arabs. We were responding to those people who dared to call our naval commandos murderers for defending their country and themselves from a lynch mob. When we saw the international community pile on against Israel, it was so dramatic and overwhelming we decided to produce the song in English.

Warner/Chappell, which owns the rights to “We are the World,” had YouTube remove the video, supposedly for copyright infringement. Glick, who is appealing, contends there were no violations of the fair use doctrine or U.S. copyright law. Indeed, I quickly found that YouTube hosts another parody video, “Obama’s Inauguration Party Song,” which also uses the tune from “We are the World”. Neither YouTube nor Warner saw fit to pull this video, though the lyrics are objectionable.

Glick comments about the obvious hypocrisy:

They are trying to personalize everything and demonize what they can’t contend with. The left has one card, and they play it over and over again for dealing with issues. They have no answer but to resort to the politics of destruction. Their favorite method is to call anyone who gives them an answer that they can’t contend with a racist. They cry for terrorists who would destroy them, but come out against democracies.

Critics claim that a line from the Glick video — “There’s no people dying, so the best that we can do is create the greatest bluff of all” — is insensitive to the nine people who died on the flotilla. From Huffington Post columnist Eileen Read:

Even if she hates people of another race or religion and is allowed by her editors to poke fun at them in a tasteless and blatantly racist way, she should be fired for making fun of the dead.

What we were referring to are the people in Gaza. No one in Gaza is dying as a consequence of Israel’s naval blockade off the coast. The line was not about the specific flotilla. The point is the bluff they are putting together: that the flotilla was for a humanitarian mission, when in fact what they want to do is really attack Israel.

The critics of the parody show a definite disconnect with what actually happened, according to publicly available video footage of the incident. The supposed “peace activists,” some members of the terrorist group IHH (Foundation for Humanitarian Rights and Freedoms), initiated the violence. Says Glick:

Calling them peace activists is a complete lie. If you want to get some credibility you attach the word peace to your name or title, and you can get immunity to criticism. Instead of listening to the message, they are demonizing the messenger.

She continues:

There is a boycott of Israel by Hollywood and the rock world. They would rather champion a terrorist organization against Israel. Where are the Jews of Hollywood — Steven Spielberg, Barbara Streisand, and David Geffen? They will not speak out on Israel’s behalf. They care far more about being leftist than they care about being Jews.

Glick feels her critics did not succeed at stifling her speech — according to her, tens of thousands of people sent in responses to the video, with 90% of them being overwhelmingly positive. Responses came from people of different religious backgrounds, including Jews, Christians, Muslims, Armenians, and Kurds, from all over the world. She points out that after the original version was taken down, al-Jazeera aired almost the entire clip after translating it into Arabic. She feels the reason for her success is the clear, truthful, and understandable points:

People were really moved by our message, and it hit them in both the head and the gut.

Yeah, it’s about time the usually leftish Jerusalem Post take note of the hypocrisy and tepid support for Israel that is coming from Obama and most of his crew. Perhaps more American Jewish voters will wake up and stop being predictably “in the tank” for the Democratic party. As for the Hollywood Jewish big shots; forget it, they will still gleefully attend the next Obama fundraiser gala.

It’s HaAretz that is the definite LEFT WING English paper in Israel. Maybe 20 – 30 years ago the Jerusalem Post was left, but not since at LEAST 10 years go — they are a definite RIGHT – Center-RIGHT paper. They will occasionally (as does the Wall Street Journal) publish dissenting opinions — but that is merely to keep themselves looking fair. But I think the shift occurred when it was sold to a new owner and he brought in lots of new blood. Also, read the comments — lot’s of right wingers like us

The J-Post, unlike say Commentary, or PJM for that matter is a “Full Service Newspaper” and thus must cater to the needs of many different people — it’s not *merely* a political magazine or blog. But there’s no question that it shifted right a good while back now.

Forget about high profile Jews in the United States – they’re not going to touch the controversy around Israel. With more muslims in the US who are violently sensitive to criticism and also prospective customers don’t expect a lot of help from Hollywood. They will back anything that is politically correct with their fan base but back off otherwise. Eminem just came out for gay marriage – like, what else is he gonna say. The only celebrities you can trust are the ones who say nothing because they are at least being honest. Otherwise it’s pretty much Africa this and Haiti that because their is no political downside. My own feeling is that the United States should leave the United Nations and use the building as a library because it is utterly corrupt, giving a voice to too many countries that have the humanity IQ of a donkey.

Oh dear, Caroline, you still expect the media to treat Israel and her supporters fairly. Even now when the international community and most Western media have been given carte blanche and even encouraged by American President Barack Obama to take whatever mean, nasty, unfair, and unjustified shot at any and every Israeli action.
Israel and her supporters like you will have to stand up for themselves and try your best to overcome your opponents. There is no longer anyone powerful standing in our corner to support us or to help us out.
Israel and our supporters are now entirely on their own.

This is pretty much true. Also, Caroline did her part first to attack Livni on Bibi’s behalf, which made sense; then, to rip Moshe Feiglin several times – including when Bibi ‘dropped him’ down the Likud list simply to block Feiglin from entering the Knesset. Caroline wrote a piece in which she essentially called Moshe and anyone who agreed with him a dangerous fanatic.

Caroline is indeed still hoping for fairness from a world that is – large parts of it – opposed to Israel’s existence ‘on principle.’ She has not yet assimilated this fact, partly because her career at the J-Post and as a think-tank secular hawk does not allow for the consideration of viewpoints that are ‘religious’, etc.

She is very intelligent, but also ends up playing the game based on ‘thought’ terms that are dictates by others.

” The Jewish apologists are avidly and pathetically intent on stating the case for the Jew by contradicting his enemies. They do not even pause to study the accusations of these enemies. They feel only that anything the anti-Semite says must be contradicted and disproved- and they rush forward with statements that Jews love their mothers, are full of patriotism, sweetness and solid human charm.
These denials, contradictions and affirmations are a preposterous waste of time.. Jewish diplomacy has been wasting its time in this fashion for almost twenty centuries., offering alibis and mitigating circumstances- for what? Is there anything of which a Jew can be guilty that could match the unsavory and contemptible antics of his accusers? Apologies to whom? To that judge with blood-caked hands who sits leering from his bench? to that enfeebled and chaotic brain that calls itself an anti-semite? Or to that smug and highty-tighty bystander, World Opinion- a gentleman who hasn’t been able to find his buttocks with both hands since he was given an alphabet to play with?
You would think that Jews would wake up to this one fact about themselves- that their defensive position is the chief delight and arsenal of the anti-semite. But never comes such awakening. ”

” There are two things very unwise to do in the world. One is to proclaim you are in distress- and expect your plight to bring Samaritans rushing to your side. An occasional Samaritan will arrive- but accompanied always by three hooligan sadists intent on the sport of increasing your misery. The other is the business of advertising your virtues. The ” Jewish propaganda machine ” is more or less devoted to both schemes, and the results continue, century in and out, to be the same. In a world that admires only victors, the Jews have persisted in advertising themselves to be victims only. This the Jew is not. I am not writing of those murdered but those alive. No man alive is a victim. It is not only stupid but dangerous to pronounce himself one. ”

Millions of Americans stand with Israel. Millions of Americans are sick and tired of Hollywood and the Main Stream Media too. Their lies are so obvious that people are starting to wake up and reward this mendacity with contempt and simply turn the channel in the case of CNN and the BBC or stop their subscriptions. Personally I cancelled my subscriptions to the NYT long ago, the local rag, and the Economist magazine too. These people who write to intentionally deceive and lie to the public need to earn the full fruits of their miserable efforts. I do not wish ill on the people of GAZA or the arabs on the West Bank but it is time for these people to get a life. They refuse to give Israel the right to exist and for this they happily live on UN welfare paid for by the EU and the United States. It is time for the ARab world to pick up the tab for this. It is time to stand up to Islam globally and tell the truth. I thought WE CON THE WORLD was wonderful too. It perfectly captures the whole situation in GAZA. The perfect Con Job on the west. And we are falling for it–until now!!

Keep up the good work. More people than you know realize the truth in what you say.

Grantman, she is as impressive in person as she is in her writings, and in her video postings.

She spoke before a fully packed room this past February in Jerusalem, at an anti-terror conference which I helped organize. She speaks plainly, clearly, factually, weaving together geopolitical analysis with strategic acumen. Most of the attendees were law enforcement from the US, hoping to learn lessons from Israeli security personnel on how to secure their communities from Islamic threats, surely heading to ANY city USA.
The crowd adored her, admired her no nonsense demeanor, and would have listened to her all night if they could.

Unlike the empty suited BHO, she is all substance,(with an all American girl next door look) and would make mincemeat out of him if he DARED to debate her.Her grasp of history is vastly impressive. What a match up that would be – BHO cut his political/organizing teeth in Hyde Park, the same ‘hood where Caroline grew up. BHO went to Columbia (under dubious circumstances to be sure)and Caroline did too, but under the strength of her own intellect.BHO went to Harvard (again, a dubious Saudi connection…)and Caroline did too, but after amassing impressive credentials to do so.

Therein the similarities end. I would pay big money to see them duel it out-intellectually speaking.

Good for Caroline Glick. All of us, Jew and Christian alike, need to be realistic about what is happening, not only in the Muslim world, but the world at large. For some reason, anti-semitism has raised its poisonous head and we must all fight against it. This is not just anti-semitism, it embraces all of those who support Israel and what she stands for.

Some people actually believe that if you love America, you must hate everyone else.
The truth is that these people are themselves full of hate and are desperate to find a socially acceptable outlet for that hate.

As an FULL and NATURAL American Citizen, I can tell you that Caroline Glick is a PRO-AMERICAN, PRO-ISRAELI Israeli Citizen.You on the other hand have either been fed a pack of lies (in which case, you’re not entirely responsible for your completely nutty outburst) OR, if not, if you actually DO understand who Caroline Glick is and you STILL say those things, you are borderline schizophrenic with delusions of grandeur! Please see your Psychiatrist IMMEDIATELY.

“Where are the Jews of Hollywood — Steven Spielberg, Barbara Streisand, and David Geffen? They will not speak out on Israel’s behalf. They care far more about being leftist than they care about being Jews.”

Indeed…save the whales….save the gays….save the lesbians….save the dartar snail….save the illegals….colored arm bands for aids….but they can’t wear Blue & White to save the Jews. It just isn’t trendy enough for these worms. Besides…they wouldn’t want to upset rosie the donut, whoopie or garafalo, would they?

Kudos to Caroline Glick. Two exceptional videos. Truth in humor. It is veer sad that the “truth” involves the world being complicit in terror being accepted as a viable form of political expression. Keep it coming Caroline. We need more truth in this format.

Youtube takes videos down if they get complaints, even ridiculous complaints. Two years ago I had posted a video how I got ripped off by a scurrilous knave who calls himself the Amazing Randi. I offered ten thousand dollars to anyone if I couldn’t easily prove the Randi million dollar challenge is nothing more than a disingenuous publicity stunt. His followers posted on Youtube all sorts of hate postings and complained vociferously to Youtube and had my video taken down. If a bunch of Arabs complain to Youtube they will take off anything the religious fanatics complain about. Youtube just doesn’t want to be involved with anything that causes people to complain, no matter what the reason, copyright infringement, hurt political correct feelings, dastardly actions, whatever.

Israel attacked a NATO member ship. The American government and other NATO members should have defended the Turkish ship and declared war on Israel.

In Occupied America – such things may not be said.

Yet, we still hear Jews complaining …. why does everybody hate us?

there are more Mormons than Jews in America… can you imagine the outcry if Mormons consolidated this much power? – to over rule the constitution, our treaties – and commitments?

America is backing into a corner with the thugs of Israel – with the help of treasonous diaspora Jews in America. If this usurpation of America by a sliver of the population is not condemned, and turned around, Jews will not be safe here either.

YOU simply cannot control the other 98% of the country with threats and intimidation!

And NATO is not a Jew hating organization? Please, gimme a break. Those people on those ships knew exactly what they were doing. Every country has the right to inspect any ship coming into it’s territory. I don’t care who it is or what they claim they are there for. I don’t know if these so called “humanitarian” ships had permission to be there or not, but you can bet that if a ship came in to U.S. waters without permission the Coast Guard would pounce on it like a cat on a mouse.

Israel attacked a NATO ship? Please. This ship had on board, with Turkish knowlege and approval, about 40 fighters with tools and weapons and a command hierarchy. En route to Israel, they chanted racist slogans calling for killing Jews and harking back to the Koranic descriptions of Mohammed’s fine example at that sort of murder. Their mission was to attack Israeli blockade-enforcers, nothing less. The ship was a false-flag operation posing as a carrier of ‘peace activists’, and anyone who pretends they were so acting under NATO auspices is himself sailing under false-flag polemic colors.

actually, breaking a known blockade by a government approved force IS a declaration of war. Thats why it was done by a government-backed force, with said gorvenment denying its involvment.

Apparently Turkey didn’t want to declare war on Israel. What they yet may play for, is to force a situation when they would claim (however dubiously and falsely) that Israel has attacked them (eg. by sending a military convoy “protecting” the next “humanitarian flotilla”, with Israeli navy intercepting them). Which would also be a declaration of war by Turkey on Israel, but could be played by intentionally dumb media as a war action of Israel on Turkey.

Now *that* would force NATO to declare war on Israel, automatically, under the NATO treaty.

There’s another way to think of it: A NATO member country tried to run the legal naval blockade, and then attacked the armed forces of the country legally enforcing its blockade. Was NATO attacking Israel?

The Mavi Marmara was bought by the IHH, a private “charity” in Turkey, and was flying under the flag of Comoros on May 31, 2010. The Union of the Comoros is an island nation in the Indian Ocean, between Madagascar and Tanzania.

If evidence comes out that definitively links the discounted sale of the Mavi Marmara to the IHH by the Istanbul Municipal Government, then NATO should boot Turkey out. The only reason Turkey became a member of NATO was U.S. insistence because of the advent of the Cold War. Since May 31, Turkey daily provokes Iraq with violations of Iraqi sovereignty in Iraqi Kurdistan. Turkey has had an illegal land blockade of Armenia since 1993.

Why would NATO want to come to the defense of Turkey?; the last country who invaded and continues to occupy a Western country, Cyprus. And then tried to take control of all NATO assets inside Turkey.

The borderline fascist “realist” Islamist-accomodating-in-the-name-of “stability” Establishment Elites of Brzezinski/Baker persvasion, ruling over Washington DC these days, might just back Turkey over Israel. Obama, though their front man, is clear in his personal affiliations. If unable to do this openly, they might revert to secret black-ops.

It was reported that on Egyptian Nile TV the high-ranking minister Aboul Gheit said in March this year that a. Obama told him in confidence that he is still a Muslim, and b. the Muslims should be patient and he (Obama) will show them how to deal with Israel.

Scary stuff. Starting/provoking the Big One has the additional benefit for Obama, since after street riots would break out when gas hits $20 at the pumps, he’d get to declare the marshal law and postpone the elections – IN-DE-FI-NITE-LY. With full approval of MSM, O’Reilly included.

“Jews will not be safe here either”. To me it sounds like a borderline threat, G Marks. Let me tell you something: This time around, you little Nazi scum bag, Jews are armed, dangerous and as you found out yourself they are “powerful” too.
This kind of bravado and propaganda may sound good in the woods somewhere with your other overweight Nazi friends, not here.
Back Off.

Great interview Elise, thank you Caroline for courageously letting the world know the motives of the so called Gaza humanitarian blockade runners. Let the Israelis know that they do have the support of the American people in this fight against the Muslim terrorists in spite of our gutless American politicians and so called celebrities. Your new video has over 1300 views despite Youtube’s attempt to bury it. I am now a fan of the Latma TV website.

Indeed…save the whales….save the gays….save the lesbians….save the dartar snail….save the illegals….colored arm bands for aids….but they can’t wear Blue & White to save the Jews. It just isn’t trendy enough for these worms. Besides…they wouldn’t want to upset rosie the donut, whoopie or garafalo, would they?

These “peace loving” terrorists and their progressive appeasers share a common bond.

They absolutely, positively can not tolerate being laughed at. I discovered this fact several years ago – pointing fingers and belly laughing at their abject stupidity is an incredibly effective weapon.

And with Ms. Glick’s help, I’m laughing at you feckless punks. That includes you cowardly slugs in Hollywood.

They are missing the irony part of the brain, thus perceiving this humor as pure mocking. It just sails right over their heads, and then they see us all going lolcat on them, and they can’t comprehend the humor, so they take it as 100% ridicule. Frankly, I think the ridicule of the peaceniks is funnier than the ridicule of the terrorists.

“Where are the Jews of Hollywood — Steven Spielberg, Barbara Streisand, and David Geffen? They will not speak out on Israel’s behalf. They care far more about being leftist than they care about being Jews.”

I concur, apathetic & neglectful, where’s the support for our people damn it?

And was this so-called ‘American’ message paid for by funds extorted by the Chicago Machine from American businesses to keep their incompetent Dear Leader kept in undeserved splendor, along with his other Chicago mobsters in the White House?

You called yourself “American”? You are a scum who deserves only to be spat upon. You may have the birth certificate ,ahole, but you are not an American. The only thing you are is a disgrace. Please, do us patriotic Americans a favor and go the Riyadh or Havana. We dont need scum like you here. Go kiss Soros a##.

“She should be barred from the US or imprisoned and hung for treason against America
as well as against American values”.
So what you’re saying is that Caroline should be hung because you don’t agree with her.
Hmmmmm…… doesn’t sound American, or democratic to me.

The situation is being set up to begin a regional war with Israel. The actors have re-armed with missiles in the thousands. All it will take is a reason and stopping the Iranian or Turkish flotilla’s will be the signal for all those missiles to fly Time on Target in a barrage that cannot be stopped.
I feel the islamist expect the UN and the world to appeal to America to stop any nuclear retaliation against the launch sites or the countries that launch them.
Israel will be expected to stand and take the bombardment with only a minimal conventional reposte.
Iran feels now is the time to begin the end of Israel, I feel iran will bite off more than it can chew.

youtube, cowards on display. The reason the folks at Youtube pulled this………….Hamas and radical Islamists have a habit of De-capitating those who disagree with them. They probably reviewed the video of Daniel Pearlman, got a real cold chill up their spines and pull the video.

If this whole Israel/World debacle would be a soccer match we would all shout “Israel Go, Israel Go, Israel Go.” Rooting for Israel to be the winnerin this match. But infortunately it’s people’s lives and survival at stake and G-d’s people as such which makes the whole contast dead serious – life and death serious – heaven and hell serious depending on whether you side with G-d and his people or Satan and the world which he not yet fully reigns. But in the last days judgement will come over the whole world to make way for the glorious millenial kingdom under Jesus’ the Son of G-d rule which will be the ultimate biblical utopia in real existence.

Elise: please remind Caroline that she is breaking the
Intelectual property right with this video. I am in entertainment business and she is breaking the law.
the followin countries have little or respect for intelcual property laws
all of middle east.. Israel included..
all of Africa
russia
china
india
Bangladeh

please also remind caroline that here in states as soon
as you critisze Israel they call you anti semite and anti jews
and if you are a jew critising Israel you are then
labeled self hating Jew…
please also remind Caroline, American Jews are Americans first and thier loyalty is to America and not to Israel.
Please also remind her that we don’t give the Israeli government 10 million dollars a day for the army to shoot people point blank.
Thank you

Miriam, you might want to ask your IP lawyer about something called the Fair USe doctrine. If you were really in the entertainment business, you’d probably know about it, but then again you’d probably know how to spell the word intellectual.

As an American judge noted in Irving Berlin’s lawsuit against Mad Magazine, Irving Berlin may own the rights to White Christmas, but he does not own the rights to iambic pentameter.

miriam, I don’t know if you are lying again, or really just incredibly ignorant. Anyone in the “entertainment business” should already be aware of the just use and parody exceptions to copyright laws.

Or perhaps your connection to the “entertainment business is that you answer the phones at the front desk.

As to your complaint that anyone who criticizes Israel is labeled an anti-semite, that too is a lie, as has been demonstrated many times.

It is only those who criticize Israel while at the same time ignoring or even excusing worse crimes by others that are correctly labeled anti-semite.
It is only those who use lies to criticize Israel that are correctly labeled anti-semite.

You have done both, and more, therefore you are labeled an anti-semite, because that is precisely what you are.

PS: If someone is trying to kill you, it doesn’t matter how far away they are when you start shooting back. Of course to people like miriam, the worst crime in the world occurs whenever a jew defends himself.

She’s right! Turkey pulled this stunt to deligitimize Israel by calling it humanitarian.They actually want people to get killed for publicity (Israel offered to send all the goods on board to Gaza). Hamas also does not mind its people killed – they send rockets into Israeli towns fired from schools, mosques, hospitals, homes…, all to gain sympathy while endangering its people.

Caroline Glick rocks! She is brilliant, articulate, funny and frighteningly accurate in her assessments. Thank goodness there are writers willing to write/say/produce what the cowardly, Muslim pandering world (led by our current administration) has been unwilling to write, say or produce.

MarkTheGreat: I just an email to General Council in LA about
“Fair Use Doctrin” Please stand by..
I will correct my self and will appologize to Caroline if
I am wrong…
Menachem: My spelling has nothing to do with any of these. it seems you got the message..No

Oh woman! Who takes herself so VERY VERY seriously and asks us all to “Please Stand By…” as if she were breathlessly reading a live report of international import over mass media (I think I can hear the teletype machine clicking in the background!) — may I inquire, how long you would like me to sit here in front of my computer avidly awaiting your next message? A few hours? A day? May I go to the bathroom if necessary? Please answer these questions for me as, it is unfortunately not true what you said about us all understanding you. I did not get “the answers” from your prior comment as to these particulars. Please, oh please Miriam, could you direct us all to your whims?

Miriam, Have you the slightest awareness of how much you are ridiculed here? You are such an object of such laughter I actually feel sorry for you Miriam — and believe me, that is difficult! But if you wish to “dig yourself a deeper grave,” please don’t let me stop you.

(see, I make spelling mistake too — I had forgotten the extra ‘o’ in “too” there for example — when I type, I just take the extra 30 seconds to read over what I’ve typed and correct what I’ve written — it’s called being COURTEOUS to your readers. It’s something you may want to investigate — that is, once you’re international cadre of copyright law attorneys all get back to you, of course. Fuhrer Miran

A serious question — my mother recently died, and for a large part of her life she worked in an adult mental institution as a Psychologist and I would visit her after school often and soon learn to pick up on the signs of various mental illnesses. I sense one in you and I really do not want to make fun of it. But first I need to know if you truly do suffer from one? Could you verify that for me? Please? Pretty Please?

I am thinking that Miriam is a guy. He/she/it said on another thread that he/she/it was off to “smoke a cigar and chase W..men” not sure what the … meant. Based on his/her/its bad spellng, maybe the real name is Mike, but he/sh/it just spelled it wrong.

What a moronic world that constantly tries to challenge one small, highly successful country, Israel. Perhaps it is that very success amidst a sea of Arab/Muslim failure that irks them so.

The “We Con the World” video was brilliant, best song I’ve heard all year.

Many of us in America see straight through so many of the world’s double standards & things like the idiotic faux outrage of morons over at the Huffington Post.

All the best to Caroline Glick and friends. Keep up the great work and we’ll do our best to keep it honest over here, to try to counter some of the brain dead posturing of some members of the current American administration.

Fair use doctrine is simple. If you’re not stealing someone’s work to make money that they should be making, that is to say if you’re not stealing revenue from the creator, and if your use is intended to further a public discussion or to be satirical or both, and if in the use of the material you are not slandering or libeling the creator or implying the creator was involved in the production of your satire, then you’re not ‘unfairly using’ his or her product.

It is about demonstraging a loss of some sort. If the creator of material argues a loss, of reputation or revenue or anything else, because of the use of it, it has to be a GOOD argument.

“we con the world” is satirical on multiple levels, takes a public position on a public discussion, and does not harm the owners or slander them.

Brilliant,Caroline Glick.Word from my persian contacts is still the same too.The Iranian regime will kill you if you dont wear a burqua.Theyll kill you if dont jump when the “secret” police say jump.This Iranian regime will therefore be taken apart piece by piece.Dont need help from the Left thanks.They can just sit tight and watch since there useless anyways.Hard to useful when youve got no spine.

I love Caroline Glick, too! I first read her work during the 2008 presidential campaign, when she pointed out Obama’s less than stellar track record regarding Jewish issues. Even Hillary Clinton seemed to be more pro-Israel than Obama, a trend which has reversed and accelerated. Glick has pointed out how the US State Department seems to have a hardline anti-Israel policy now. THAT may be why Hollywood Jews won’t touch this controversy. They see Hillary as their own, and their one chance to “own” Washington D.C. Stand up and be counted as opposing HRC just to support some Jewish foreign thing? Don’t hold your breath. What amazes me is how the unabashed antisemitics in Hollywood are not blacklisted. Even Mel Gibson was discommodated more for his conservative and religious leanings than his drunken antisemitic rant.

I wish a long and productive life to Caroline Glick, full of controversy, unpopular truth, and hope.

Three cheers for Caroline Glick! I’d pay $100 for a seat to see her debate THE WON. She would totally destroy him; I’ve not the slightest doubt of that. Ms. Glick is a very bright person, a relatively common occurrence in my Jewish acquaintances.

Where she is anomalous is in her conservatism. It baffles me how so many American and Israeli Jews can continue to be leftist dupes when it is patently obvious that the leftists now hate Jews and will do whatever they can to hurt them and help their enemies? How can a people that produces so many brilliant individuals be, as a group, so generally foolish in their political leanings?

Anyone who can explain this, please do. Do liberal Jews have some kind of secret suicide craving that the rest of us don’t know about?

Helen Thomas and Hamas both want the Jews out of the Middle East.
Thomas wants the Jews transferred to Poland.
Hamas wants Jews transferred to the middle of the ocean.
Where there can be no tree to hide a Jew if he is chased by murderers.
They are proponents of violent transfer.

Thomas , with her , ” Get the hell out! ” and Hamas with their baby killing.
Different, to be sure, but the intent, identical.
That is true ethnic cleansing .

On the other hand non violent population transfer has been done before.
In fact the very first High Commissioner for Refugees of the League of Nations, Fridtjof Nansen , received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1922 for ending a war that seemed intractable by using non violent population transfer..

” In 1919, he ( Nansen ) became president of the Norwegian Union for the League of Nations and at the Peace Conference in Paris was an influential lobbyist for the adoption of the League Covenant and for recognition of the rights of small nations. From 1920 until his death he was a delegate to the League from Norway. In June, 1921, the Council of the League appointed Nansen its first High Commissioner for Refugees. Stateless refugees recieved a ” Nansen Passport ” , a document of identification which was eventually recognized by fifty-two governments. In the nine-year life of this Office, Nansen ministered to hundreds of thousands of refugees – Russian,Turkish, Armenian, Assyrian, Assyro-Chaldean – utilizing the methods that were to become classic: custodial care, repatriation, rehabilitation, resettlement, emigration, integration. In 1922 at the request of the Greek government and with the approval of the League of Nations, Nansen tried to solve the problem of the Greek refugees who poured into their native land from their homes in Asia Minor after the Greek army had been defeated by the Turks. Nansen arranged an exchange of about 1,250,000 Greeks living on Turkish soil for about 500,000 Turks living in Greece, with appropriate indemnification and provisions for giving them the opportunity for a new start in life.” Nobel Prize Website

IN 1922 FRIDTJOF NANSEN WAS AWARDED THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE .

” We all know from the history books of the exchange of Turks and Greeks, which took place after World War I when, after the war ended, there was a further war between Greece and Turkey, at the end of which, the Greek and Turkish governments agreed on an exchange of populations. And as it appears in the history books, the Greek minority in Turkey was sent to Greece; the Turkish minority in Greece was sent to Turkey. That’s what it says in the history books. But if you look at the treaty in which this agreement was incorporated, it says something different. The parties to be exchanged are defined as Turkish subjects of the Greek Orthodox faith and Greek subjects of the Muslim faith. And if you look more closely at who the people actually were, they were, to a very large extent, Turkish-speaking Orthodox Christians from Turkey and Greek-speaking Muslims from Greece. This was not an exchange of two ethnic minorities. It was a deportation of two religious minorities. ”
Prof. Bernard Lewis, April. 27, 2006 interview, Pew Forum

Ninety-nine and one-half percent of the middle east is muslim. There are enormous swathes of empty land throughout the Arab world. A fraction of the money spent on war would build one thousand Beverly Hills’ for refugees who wanted to move. There are people all over the world looking for better homes and opportunities. Are the Palestinians all of the same mind? No single Palestinian wants a new villa, a new school for his children, and the money to start a bakery?
There is plenty of money for flagship properties in London. Boutique hotels for the privileged instead of cities for the Palestinians?

What if someone wishes to remain where they are? They can. Their reason would be their business. No need to justify or argue. You want to stay? Stay
Where people wish to remain they should be able to do so as citizens of Jordan, which already controls seventy-seven percent of territorial Palestine. If Jordan wishes to change its name to Palestine, as the late King Hussein Ibn Talal suggested, that is its right.
Perhaps there are other countries that would allow applications for citizenship. I don’t know.

Muslims all over the world are on the move. Only the Palestinians stay put?
Hamas wants the Palestinians in Gaza to stay put. They are its hostage.

That is why true humanitarian relief for Gaza would be getting the people out, not the concrete in.
